Well, one more work day. I need to focus on the 10 meter circles. You know what's funny, is Rob Gibson. I started the circle on #16 & stopped to whack weeds around the perimeter. He & Kev are playing are playing when they hear the whacker. They come up & Rob grabs the paint to finish the circle. Most give me a Hey! play the hole & go on. Jesse did some weed whacking at Wed. doubles on #1.

There's so many good people in the disc golf World that love you Frankie! Keep up the good work Brother

Congrats on your Victory Frank.... You deserve it my Brother!!! You take care of Channy and Channy takes care of you.

Thanks Randy. I usually don't win the Classic. I checked the records & the past 6 years I won one other time, 2010. I'm typically exhausted. I don't know what happened this year. The scores were pitiful. Thanks again my brother! Take care & get ready for Oswego, I'll see you there.

Jesse needs a lot more credit for running so many tournaments, the doubles league, and still a heck of a family man - to hear his tale is pretty damn inspiring and I can't say enough how much you impact the disc golf community and me personally. Without your hard work and sacrifice to the sport, we would have a lot less fun and action around here.

It really is hard to say thank you to one individual when there really is so many people that do so much to make great tournaments and leagues around Joliet, but I think Jesse needs a special shout out for his work and his love for his family - disc and home.
